After the largest civil rights protest in history, Biden bragged about:
* Giving the cops even more funding than they asked for.🤡 Overfunding the cops.
* Ramping up mass incarceration to its highest levels🤡
* Pressuring cities to form more brutal units that beat Black men to death🤡

This ratio meme is falsely assuming that politicians still care what their constituents say and think. That's no longer true.
Politicians now can win just by having a couple billionaire super PAC endorsements. Sometimes just one.
They know the PACs will utilize propaganda and win the race.

All anti-mask laws—even those with so called “medical exceptions”—stigmatize mask-wearing.
Fewer people wearing masks increases the spread of infectious diseases.
No matter how lawmakers try to spin it, any law that criminalizes wearing a mask endangers public health. Period.

To spell it out, the reason I hate democrats so much and criticize them more than I do republicans is because they take up all the space for opposition to republicans and use that space to give republicans whatever the fuck they want.

You don’t need to leak false information. If it is false, you are just making it up. So either it is a leak of truthful information or it is someone making something up.

I've said this a thousand times but it bears repeating: the protests did not put Trump in office. They exposed the unpopularity of the DNC's genocidal policies, and gave the Harris campaign more than enough time to adjust course. The campaign actively chose to sacrifice votes for its policies.

Sadly, at any left wing protest, you could find a small number of anti semites trying to spread hatred
While at any right wing protest, like Jan 6th, you'll find a large number of anti semites trying to spread hatred. Trump pardoned them. How many articles has the Atlantic written about that?

This is the favorability rating *within* the democratic party. Nation-wide it's at 7%, I think. It's the lowest it's ever been in any category. Libs will continue to blame leftists anyway, because they have nothing else, and facing reality is not their style.
Hard to ignore, but the Libs
will show you Lefters
how it’s done, I promise you🤓

This is exactly how you deal with Nazis, at first. This is the most civil, gentle, and polite anyone should ever be with fascists trying to take your time or invade your space. If this doesn't work, you defend yourself and your people by any means necessary. Very happy to see this.

There are too many people in politics/journalism who end up doing incredible harm to their minds due to the dangerously strenuous mental-gymnastics needed to never admit that the Left is ever right about anything.

I know why you have to do this. You've always viewed the left with a degree of condescension and contempt, but now that the chickens have come home to roost you've found that the leftists were correct the whole time

The thing that liberals are *actually* upset about isn't leftists 'tanking' the election, what they're angry at is outspoken criticism of the Dem party. They're mad that there wasn't a critical mass of voters willing to be immoral & obedient like them, pretending that a genocide wasn't happening.

A lot of liberals believe that if they can sacrifice just this one group of people for their own self-interest, after that they can stop. Let the government beat up protestors, let them disappear Mahmoud Khalil, let them exterminate every last Palestinian, after that we can meet them halfway...
Fascism and the end of democracy isn't a red line then I suppose.

Something that seems a bit strange about these arguments is how they focus narrowly on the election, when the conditions were already in place for a long time. Addressing those conditions, and fighting the rise of fascism, is intertwined with the struggle against a system so deeply committed to war.

dems want to keep rerunning the clinton 16 strategy, which is warmed over clinton 92 strategy, but with candidates who have way less charisma and public speaking skills, instead of the wildly successful obama 08 strategy, which at least got people - like me! - hyped before stabbing us in the back.

The warped desire to blame everyone except *the party that lost* because they ran a terrible campaign and ignored the voters is wild. Look at the dems now, they’re doing the exact same thing! Still you bitch about the left instead of the dinosaurs doing nothing to stop the slide into fascism.
